    It seems Darren Barker had problems with his hips during the fight.
    He is on the way to the hospital now

    This is what happens when there is 100 belt per division, Barker never ever deserved to be champ...not even paper champ

    Just seen it again.... After the second kd, he limped on one leg to the ropes. If he was chinny, he wldnt ever be able to limp on one leg.

    A top ten world ranked fighter, who has won British, Commonwealth, European and IBF titles isn't what I would call a bum.

    I am not a barker fan but I am amazed that on a supposedly serious boxing forum clowns like yourself are allowed to post . Boxers deserve respect it's a very tough sport and posters like you do not make this forum look good please find another forum to post your rubbish on .

    I meant he knows details like the age when Calzaghe retired. To me it shows a lot. There are world class boxers who are concerned with their division and nothing else.

    Good decision by corner, they realised he couldn't move and saying he probably won't be in the ring again

    And people calling him a bum? To into the ring with a busted hip and let's see how you do

    The injury looks legit. He's had surgeries on both of his hips in the past and very nearly had to hang up his gloves because of them. He told his corner there was a problem with it during the interval at the end of the first round and you could see him motion over to them that ''it had gone'' after the first KD.

    I've never rated him that highly but he's a really nice guy and he's had some awful luck throughout his career. He definitely deserves the benefit of the doubt regarding the validity of the injury. It's not like he has a history of faking injuries or anything.

    He beat Geale the fighter who beat Sturm to win the title.
